While energy costs remain high and temperatures low, taking advantage of Black Friday deals can help cut costs.
With months of winter weather ahead and the nights drawing in, many choose to spend more time indoors.
Central heating is expensive to run however, and some households are investing in ways to reduce their spending and heat themselves rather than their entire homes.
Electric blankets have surged in popularity over the last few years, and Black Friday has come just in time to get prepared for the colder weather.
Lakeland has slashed the price of the Sherpa Electric Heated Throw from £89.99 to £53.99.
Buy: Sherpa Electric Heated Throw (£53.99)
The throw comes in peacock blue, teal or grey shades, and has a soft and fleecy sherpa lining, which shoppers say is ‘so warm and cosy’ that they ‘hardly need to even switch it on’.
There are nine different heat settings so it’s fully adjustable to changing temperatures, and you can also set the timings for how long you want the heat to remain on.
The features also include auto shut-off for peace of mind when relaxing or using in bed.
It is worth keeping in mind that some of the reviews mention the connector being stiff to unplug, so it could be difficult to detach the blanket when you want to use it switched off.
Shoppers have been leaving their feedback on the Lakeland website, with some calling the throw ‘fabulous’.
Mr Lomas said: ”A wonderful product, not needed the central heating on as the throw warms up quickly and then stays warm and snuggly even after it’s turned off. Perfect as is the customer services, helpful, considerate and informative.”
Sue Moore commented: ”This is a lovely looking product and nicely soft and sensibly priced. I’ve marked it down one star because the connector is really stiff and I have to get my husband to put it together and take it apart. Be aware that its huge – easily big enough for two people on the sofa.”
Mrs Stephens also added: ”This is a fabulous throw. It’s so warm and cosy, and a good weight, that I hardly need to even switch it on, it’s so warm! The teal is a beautiful rich colour and is decorating my sofa at the moment . Would thoroughly recommend, especially with the 3 year guarantee. PS: this review is by a customer paying for the product, just thought I’d say, as I think these reviews are more realistic!”
